My sister and husband were here from Santa Fe, NM for my nephew's 30th birthday.

She had tickets to see a 2 hour American Idol live show. It's been many years since I been to a taping.

The one good thing about a live broadcast show is it can't take any longer than the actual broadcast time, plus the seating and short warm-up.


I always find it curious how the television cameras are able to make a relatively small soundstage look like a huge auditorium and a large audience,

At least on this show all of the "curtains" and props are now all LED screens. On television the images mostly look like real things rather than flat LEDs.

All the cameras were remotely controlled from the back of the soundstage, with the exception of one small handheld they'd sometimes use on stage.

It's interesting how that business has changed since I last saw it up close.

We've run out of other people's Social Security taxes needed to subsidize our low income tax rates.
